That is nice!

I just bought this,  thought it might be a good fixer upper. Anyone know the model and details?

We had a cracker NYE, busy dance floor, good pay, buffet and finished at 00:30. What’s not to like?

Jesus H Corbett, is this the best the Beeb can come up with rolling out this old tosh for the umpteenth time? 

Why not live in the 21st century and give modern proven talent a chance for the big night? It’s out there I’m sure, even if I’m not totally aware of what it is!

i don’t want to listen to an 80’s back catalogue of dross when looking forward to what the future has to offer in 2019 (So I didn’t).

Ah pants! Just found out about this gig and it’s sold out! My only chance is to get the gig. 😀

Is this Q5 or Q5W?

Tom petty - running down a dream. I hate the song, but great to play for some reason.

They’re very complementary about it on Planet Rock, saying that the performances are spot on. I’ve heard from a friend (who enjoyed it) that they sometimes play fast and loose with the timeline, but if you can overlook that, it’s rather good.

Saw it last night, I’d agree with this. I liked it, the missus was unsure...

Big, Big Trace Elliot lover...I think I may have mentioned it before...

I don't understand why you can't get a tone you like...I think that there in lies the problem...the tone I want from an amp and the tone YOU want from an amp may be different. I love a phat, "cappuccino" tone - I hate an over-driven rock tone. If that's what you're after it may be that a TE is not the kiddie for you.

This may explain why I hated the Darkglass M900.

I still have the twin, sounds great, rarely gets an outing though. I have an SWR 6x10 for it

I diddnt like the look of it either terrible, terrible bass 😀 

Did the same to a GP7, you could really boost presence through the effects loop. Much better than through the pre.

ooooooooh nice bass! 😀

Dod FX25B - has the same old issue of loosing volume when on, good for modding I guess ...sold

Yes, but we never won the meat raffle!

 

 

Interruptions seem common, someone usually walks up to the singer of guitarist mid song to ask them something, not at all considering the band are mid number.

We played an outside gig the other week where this happened due to a lost bag. She repeatedly harangued the guitarist for multiple announcements. Turns out the owner was standing next to her (and said bag) all along.

’come on love, we’re trying to close the set’ was overheard...

20's was a pissup until late 20's when the fear of achievement started to creep in. Now (40), family, happy times, comfortable income and a peaceful place to live. Plus gigs of-course.

5 hr drive to South Wales, unwelcoming social club for five young lads, told to get off after 5 songs ‘you are the worst band we have ever seen’ make it your last. Packing up the van hurriedly feeling like we are about to be lynched. Never got paid.

great gig.

Ah 470 miles from me, little far to try it out! 😀

Where are you based?

Whats the view on UE11 pros or is there better out there for the price point? The web says specifically for bass players..

Ok, so the P2 is about £40 and the stick about £120. Do you get what you pay for, is there a large noticeable step change in performance?
